We are back! It has been the fastest and slowest 3 months (seriously AT THE SAME TIME) we have had in a long time. We took a break from posting, as life got crazy. Y’all know Christmas is its own version of crazy, but then Dustin’s task order ended in the middle of the longest government […]

Christmas in DC plus amazing weather.
I was watching the news the other day and apparently this year is going on record to be one of the wettest years in Washington D.C. Which is very depressing for us as that limits us going out and exploring. Our small studio apartment in NOMA is amazing until you are stuck in it for […]

The Botanical Gardens DC (United States Botanic Garden) and stopping for pizza were an unexpected twist. I really wasn’t expecting to blog about the day, but it was too cool to not share. We knew we […]

Saturdays in DC: National Portrait Gallery and Coffee
Saturdays have turned into our exploration days in DC. We tend to start each one in our neighborhood: NoMa, just meandering while walking Kona. We always end up at the National Mall. We have really tried to spend these long walks getting used to the National Mall so when people visit us we seem super […]

The Cherry Blossom Festival & Easter
Our first holiday Easter in this new city was low key, but interesting. After church, we decided to go to the Tidal Basin to check out the Cherry Blossom Festival while the trees were in full bloom. We have heard so much about them, and had seen that there is a festival to go along with […]
